MITRE ATT&CK

T1566.002 Spearphishing Attachment T1059.001 PowerShell

The PDF file contains a hidden HTML iframe, which is a common technique for redirecting users to malicious websites. The embedded URL points to 'http://www.codeforum.cn/free/max1.htm', likely serving as a lure. ClamAV detected this file as Html.Spyware.IMG-7, indicating a known malicious signature. The heuristics suggest an attempt to exploit PDF vulnerabilities or deliver malicious content via an iframe.
